Private student lenders face challenge as SAVE plan delayed and loan caps near
SLM Corp (NASDAQ:SLM) says federal student loan changes could add $4.5B–$5B in annual originations, about one-third of today’s private-education-loan market, but new data show at least one in 10 postbaccalaureate students may face both a funding gap and weak or no credit; SLM stock rose 3.6% near the dateline time.
